[osg-users] OSG Ellipsoid to Sphere Conversion

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Inna,

You don't say what you've tried, only that you tried something
relating changing from EllipsoidModel to Sphere, you don't say what
you changed the code to, what the result you got.

Without knowing what you are specifically having a problem with we
can't start helping you achieve what you want to achieve.

Robert.

In this example, I have the ellipsoid model from the lat, long and height. It's clear, then I tried to change this to Sphere. For me it seems, not possible to convert the Elliposid to sphere.
